The ratio is 5:7 when you are dealing with total membership. In other words, out of every 7 members, 5 will be men and 2 will be women

The ratio will look like this

5:7 = x:735             change to a proportion

5/7 = x / 735          Cross Multiply

7*x = 5 * 735          Combine the right

7*x = 3675             Divide by 7

x = 3675/7             Divide

x = 525

Answer: 525 men

What is the difference of the polynomials?(–2x3y2 + 4x2y3 – 3xy4) – (6x4y – 5x2y3 – y5)A–6x4y – 2x3y2 + 9x2y3 – 3xy4 + y5B–6x4y 
saul85 [17]

We have to calculate the difference of the given polynomials, we follows as:

(-2x^{3}y^{2}+4x^{2}y^{3}-3xy^{4})-(6x^{4}y-5x^{2}y^{3}-y^{5})

After opening the brackets, the signs of all the terms changes as there is negative sign before the bracket.

=(-2x^{3}y^{2}+4x^{2}y^{3}-3xy^{4})-6x^{4}y+5x^{2}y^{3}+y^{5})

Combining all the like terms, we get as

=(-2x^{3}y^{2})+(4x^{2}y^{3}+5x^{2}y^{3})-3xy^{4}-6x^{4}y+y^{5}

=-2x^{3}y^{2}+9x^{2}y^{3}-3xy^{4}-6x^{4}y+y^{5}

Option A is the correct answer.

Which shows a recursive and an explicit formula for a sequence whose initial term is 14 and whose common difference is −4? A. A(
liberstina [14]

Answer: A. A(1) = 14; A(n) = (n − 1) −4; A(n) = 14 + (n − 1)(−4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic sequence is a sequence that is identified by their common difference. Let a be the first term, n be the number of terms and d be the common difference.

For an arithmetic sequence, common difference 'd' is added to the preceding term to get its succeeding term. For example if a is the first term of a sequence, second term will be a+d, third term will give a+d+d and so on to generate sequence of the form,

a, a+d, a+3d, a+4d...

Notice that each new term keep increasing by a common difference 'd'

The nth term of the sequence Tn will therefore give Tn = a+(n-1)d

If the initial (first) term is 14 and common difference is -4, the nth of the sequence will be gotten by substituting a = 14 and d = -4 in the general formula to give;

Tn = 14+(n-1)-4 (which gives the required answer)

Tn = 14-4n+4

Tn = 18-4n

An aquarium has a base in the shape of a trapezoid. The base is 90 cm long at the front, 60 cm long at the back, and 30 cm wide
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First calculate for the area of the trapezoid (the formula is (base + base / 2) x height):

60 cm + 90 cm = 150 cm

150 cm / 2 = 75 cm

75 cm x 30 cm = 2250 cm²

Now 1 cm² = 1 mL and 1000 mL = 1 L

2250 cm² = 2250 mL

2250 mL = 2.25 L

In the xy plane, a quadrilateral has vertices at (-1, 4), (7,4), (7,5), and (-1. 5). What is the perimeter of the quadrilateral?
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

(B) 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the perimeter of a quadrilateral with vertices at (-1, 4), (7,4), (7,5), and (-1. 5).

First of all, we will draw vertices of quadrilateral on coordinate plane and connect the vertices as shown in the attached photo.

We can see that our quadrilateral is a parallelogram, whose parallel sides are equal.

\text{Perimeter of quadrilateral}=8+1+8+1

\text{Perimeter of quadrilateral}=16+2

\text{Perimeter of quadrilateral}=18

Therefore, the perimeter of the given quadrilateral is 18 units.

Allushta [10]

1 peso = 0.053 dollars.

x pesos = 400 US dollars.

1/x = 0.053 / 400                  Cross multiply

400 * 1 = 0.053 x                  Divide by 0.053

400/0.053 = 0.053*x / 0.053
